Hi Guys, I know this should probably be under tech support, but more just seeking to gauge the spread through the community.
This evening while on stream I played 8 games successfully, but 8 separate times throughout the evening, my queue stopped, I began to load into a lobby and the game failed to start, either from the other player not loading in, or me not being able to see either display picture. I eventually had to resort to alt-F4ing each time, and eventually just played lobby games because it was happening so often.
I've just formatted my PC quite literally yesterday, perhaps there's a setting I forgot to turn off? A port I didn't open? I've disabled all firewalls and don't use a virus scanner.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Some people in twitch chat were saying that both Yukietty and Callen were having the same issue since the most recent patch, so what about you personally?

Re: Game failing to load in since patch
I am excited to announce that we have recently enforced self stop policy. If the game brain seems that you are playing too much of AoE 3, it automatically bugs the game to discourage you from further engagement. If you wish to continue playing you must confirm that you are 18+, you must drink a full glass of water, take a walk or do some excersize. Then only your priviledge be restored. The move is aimed at preventing people specifically small children from becoming addicts and spending too much time on computer. Hope this helps.
Fine line to something great is a strange change.

Re: Game failing to load in since patch
Changing my name from quite literally "#####" has seemed to have fixed this issue.

Re: Game failing to load in since patch
This issue comes from 2020. https://forums.ageofempires.com/t/match ... ers/111567
Usually it will be kinda rare for me (not more than 1 in 10 games), but sometimes i'll get multiple in a row.

Re: Game failing to load in since patch
I've had a few of these. Usually verifying game files a couple of times, restarting etc helps.
Very annoying though.

Re: Game failing to load in since patch
Those have happened frequently for me since the last patch, as evident on my latest stream (I think it was the last one)
More than half of my games are affected by this, primarily happens in team games

Re: Game failing to load in since patch
I played 6 team games over the weekend (lobby games, 2v2) and nobody of us ever came across this issue. I will report back if this happens to one of us during the next days or weeks.
